Inorganic Thermoelectric Materials

From Fundamental Concepts to Materials Design

298 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Thermoelectric devices convert a heat flux directly into electrical power. They afford opportunities to achieve efficiency savings in a variety of applications, through the conversion of otherwise waste heat into useful electrical energy. Implementation of this technology requires new materials that offer better performance and stability and contain readily available and inexpensive elements. Inorganic Thermoelectric Materials reviews the important new families of advanced materials that have emerged and taken the field beyond the long-standing focus on traditional thermoelectric materials. With contributions from global experts, this title will be of interest to advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers.
